    Inclement Weather Overflow Volunteer Application

    The Inclement Weather Overflow Project would not be possible without our highly valuable partners! This form is to gather a pool of applicants who are willing to be on-call during times of inclement weather. Volunteers will be distributed at rotating volunteer sites or be assigned work which supports the operations of the overflow shelter sites. All volunteers must be responsible for their own transportation and receive mandatory training prior to being eligible for site staffing.

Training locations and dates/times are yet to be determined.
